Spike's Bitches 35: We Got a History  

Closed Threads

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Hey Slings and Arrows fans (Juliana, Scrappy), I just discovered this line by Hamlet and now I get that whole extra subplot in S1:

"I fare of the chamaeleon's dish"

I thought it was just a riff on actors changing colors.

I think the evidence is clear that Hamlet is speaking his famous soliloquy knowing that he's being watched. Too many references to playacting and lines like: "I am essentially not in madness, but mad in craft."

(This in answer to Geoffrey's directorial question and his insistence, "You have to know.")

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

(This in answer to Geoffrey's directorial question and his insistence, "You have to know.")

Oh, I totally lean toward Hamlet playacting - he's too canny elsewhere to be unaware. However, that doesn't take away from the essential truth of the entire soliloquy for me.

not your mom's socks.

What's the last 5 songs that were stuck in your head?
    • The Piano's Been Drinking (just the part about 'and she hates you and your friends...')
    • The Wonderpets Themesong (not by choice)
    • No Sleep Tonight
    • Cantaloop
    • Bitch
    • Looking at the World from the Bottom of the Well (stuck in head and also itunes shuffle-head)

eta - breaks.

(ok, that's six. But Wonderpets is sort of background-water-torture to the stuck-music torture.)

move out and draw fire

I have to admit I am not finding S&A A2 as wonderful as S1. It's still pretty damn good, though.

It's pretty satisfying in its own right. The last episode is AWESOME. I found that I had to let drop my preconceived notion that it should be more like S1. It is its own thing and goes in different directions. It doesn't have quite as much fun with the supporting cast, however.

Bwah! There's a ruby slippers doorstop. It looks like the Wicked Witch of the East has just been house flattened on the other side.
